Nostalgia & History > D&RGW #5390W enters Roper Yd. in SLC, UT- 1977Date: 01/23/13 12:44 D&RGW #5390W enters Roper Yd. in SLC, UT- 1977 Author: the_expediter Taken with my 35mm Exakta VX (Thagee Dresden) w/ monster 400mm lens...That lens weighted more than I did back in those days...I just lifted the Exakta with its 75mm portrait lens and it must weigh at least twice as much as my new Canon T3i Rebel!- Steve in cloudy Grossmont, CA

I wonder if the train's going north on the tracks that were east of I-15 (Now used by UTA, I believe...)
